Excellent team culture - Anonymous employee Emerge Interactive (OR) Employee Review

amazing culture and work environment

The work from home continued after the pandemic

I was fortunate to land with Emerge Interactive when I was taken on as a Junior Software Engineer. I learned an amazing amount from the team leads, especially the director of technology. The atmosphere of mutual respect, honesty, and learning is a great one to grow in. Likewise, there is a lot of opportunity to take on challenging work with technologies of interest. Coworkers and management are really great to work with. I always felt well supported by my supervisors, and team members. People there take their jobs seriously but are very down to earth and approachable. The company works hard to maintain an open, positive, and fun work environment. Lots of emphasis placed on company values. There is a very good work life balance and expectations of employees are very reasonable. There are some times, like at any agency, where there are longer hours with higher volumes of work, but overall these times are manageable. Flexible work hours with two WFH days. Trust placed in employees to do the right thing and get the work done. The office is very nice and in a great location in Downtown PDX.

The typical cons of working for an agency. Managing the balance of multiple projects and timelines can be challenging.
